Deer Pot

Red clay with glaze, 32 x 16 cm, Artist’s Collection (Photo: Edgar Kanaykõ Xakriabá)

I went on my first deer hunt when I turned 15. At the request of a friend, I made this Deer Pot in 2022. It reminds me of my grandfather, my father, and the hunts we used to go on.

The glaze was extracted from white and grey toá, a very light mineral.
